other · 2026-09-14

During the finals weekend, Ralph Lauren revamped its suite at the US Open into a racquet-themed Polo Bar, coinciding with the addition of 2,000 lower-bowl seats at Arthur Ashe Stadium. This vibrant venue in Queens offered Honey Deuces and chicken nuggets topped with caviar, all in specially designed packaging. On Saturday, Leslie Bibb supported Elena Rybakina, who claimed her first US Open title by defeating Aryna Sabalenka. The event attracted notable figures such as Jessica Chastain, Rami Malek, Amy Adams, and Spike Lee, all dressed in Ralph Lauren. On Sunday, Ben Shelton's defeat against Alexander Zverev dashed hopes for an American man to secure a major title for 23 years. Rybakina ascended to the world number one ranking, while Zverev had previously lost a US Open final in 2020.
